ENERGY - Geothermal Could Provide 40% Of Glasgow's Heat

Glasgow is Scotland's largest city with nearly 600,000 people. Recently, scientists have stated that 40% of Glasgow's heating needs could come from geothermal power located in local abandoned coal mine shafts. There are many such mines throughout the country, and some of them are located deep enough below ground level that they have accumulated water. This water is warm enough it can be pumped up to heat buildings and homes.Image Credit: Kim T ...
